Join us this Wednesday, February 22 for our February Families on Mission project where together we will make draw-string backpacks and pencil cases for school children in Tanzania, which we will send back with the Mboyas when they return home in March. We will begin at 5:30 with a Tanzanian meal of rice, beans, soup beans, and fruit (or chicken nuggets and fries for the more picky eaters). Then at 6:30 we will work on the mission craft project—perfect for all ages! If you would like to donate pens and crayons, please bring them with you on Wednesday. Come be a part of this great opportunity to once again share the love of Jesus around the world!
